Ed Sheeran - 15 - Nancy Mulligan
[00:08.94] I was twenty-four years old
[00:10.94] When I met the woman I would call my own
[00:13.44] Twenty-two grand kids now growing old
[00:15.94] In that house that your brother bought ya
[00:22.89] On the summer day when I proposed
[00:25.38] I made that wedding ring from dentist gold
[00:27.63] And I asked her father, but her daddy said, "No
[00:30.13] You can't marry my daughter"
[00:32.38] She and I went on the run
[00:34.88] Don't care about religion
[00:37.38] I'm gonna marry the woman I love
[00:39.38] Down by the Wexford border
[00:41.88] She was Nancy Mulligan
[00:44.13] And I was William Sheeran
[00:46.63] She took my name and then we were one
[00:48.88] Down by the Wexford border
[01:00.88] Well, I met her at Guy's in the second World War
[01:02.88] And she was working on a soldier's ward
[01:05.13] Never had I seen such beauty before
[01:07.63] The moment that I saw her
[01:10.13] Nancy was my yellow rose
[01:12.38] And we got married wearing borrowed clothes
[01:14.63] We got eight children, now growing old
[01:17.13] Five sons and three daughters
[01:19.88] She and I went on the run
[01:21.88] Don't care about religion
[01:24.38] I'm gonna marry the woman I love
[01:26.63] Down by the Wexford border
[01:28.88] She was Nancy Mulligan
[01:31.38] And I was William Sheeran
[01:33.39] She took my name and then we were one
[01:35.88] Down by the Wexford border
[01:57.13] From her snow white streak in her jet black hair
[01:59.38] Over sixty years I've been loving her
[02:01.88] Now we're sat by the fire in our old armchairs
[02:04.14] You know Nancy, I adore ya
[02:06.38] From a farm boy born near Belfast town
[02:08.88] I never worried about the king and crown
[02:11.13] 'Cause I found my heart upon the southern ground
[02:13.65] There's no difference, I assure ya
[02:16.15] She and I went on the run
[02:18.38] Don't care about religion
[02:20.63] I'm gonna marry the woman I love
[02:23.13] Down by the Wexford border
[02:25.38] She was Nancy Mulligan
[02:27.63] And I was William Sheeran
[02:29.87] She took my name and then we were one
[02:32.62] Down by the Wexford border
